Comment Just in case of emergency (Score 1) 44

They need to scan you because in an emergency (for example, if you are confined to bed in a life-threatening situation) they could crank down missing scenes even without you. Just for a case of emergency. (PS. If your wage is so high that the studio boss can't afford a new Lambo, this also counts as an emergency, clearly.)

During the Edo period (1603–1868), when the samurai class was at its peak as a distinct social group, samurai made up roughly 5–10% of Japan's total population. Estimates vary, but around 7% is a commonly cited figure. In Edo (Tokyo), samurais were about 40-50% of the local population.
